Hello all, only me !!!

Firstly thank you all for helping me with the Airwaves question I managed to get a copy at a very good price.
Most of us have many reference books but there are two that I can not remember the title's of. When I was last at Manchester Airport and the Viewing gardens I poped into the shop to have a nosey, and in the book section there was our beloved Military Aircraft Markings but to the side of it was a huge book about American aircraft and if im not mistaken one about Russian aircraft. Now I have it in my mind ( witch is alles kapput ) that they are based on the same profile as the MAM book.

Could anyone please help me out on this, or if anyone knows of any books that are like MAM that are for American Forces and Russian Forces.

Its a long shot to ask but ive been on FC for years and I know that someone out there will be able to help.

So I thank you in advance, and shall return with greater thanks if this brain of mine can be set to rest hahah. :thumbs:

They may have been the World Airpower Journal series of books, A4 Hardback?, this is only a guess on my part, hope this helps you.\
Cheers.

The ring bound "United States Air Forces" book from around 2003, or something with a similar name? A5 size roughly, black cover with large yellow text?

That's probably it, albeit the current version, thank you for a memory that's almost 20 years old!
